Karim Benzema

Karim Benzema has had an excellent season so far, finding confidence under the new manager at Real Madrid. But there isn’t a lot of certainty about his future with the club. Florentino Perez likes to make a splash in the market and may pursue Radamel Falcao or Sergio Aguero this summer, meaning Benzema may opt to leave the Bernabeu. The Frenchman will have one year left on his contract this summer and it should be possible for Arsenal to step in and negotiate a favourable deal. Benzema’s world-class status and scoring pedigree would be warmly welcomed at the Emirates.
